[Please note that DarkRain and I are planning on making characters who are brothers. Mathias is DarkRain's character]
-Biography: Darius was born the youngest of three to a tradesman and a school teacher, Elias and Reeta. Darius' parents were neither all that special nor astounding although they did love each other and their two sons Mathias(the eldest)[<- DarkRain's character] and Darius, and their daughter Baily.
From an early age Darius got into trouble spoiling his dinner and stealing an extra cookie from the cookie jar now and again, and he loved to hide in small hard to reach places and listen in on peoples conversations even if he didn't know what they meant. He was caught many times, and was brought home by the city watch on numerous occasions.
His mother being a school teacher made it simple for Darius to get into a school. He made friends easy enough, and had his own 'gang' that he got to do his bidding. His gang consisted of seven or eight other boys who more or less found ways to learn of things they were not supposed to then selling that information, such as test answers.
When he was in his teens Darius' gang became even more pushy in their elicit dealings. They began dealing in not just secrets, but they also started black mailing other students, and even a teacher or two. Seeing the trouble that Darius and his guys caused struck a tone with a couple of the high and mighty rich sobs who had parents in the government.
A little after those rich snobs took notice; Darius' father lost his business licence. Bring infuriated and knowing who was to blame; Darius took special interest in these rich snobs. Darius got him and his gang to all put on masks and meet one of the snobs in a back ally, and beat that poor man to an inch of his life with a letter in his pocket with, “Don't mess with us.” written on it. Not being able to be identified and having a legit alibi they were arrested but not convicted.
Knowing that they need to step up their game a bit Darius informs his men that they need to tone it down a bit and a specific chain of command must be kept and that secrecy is of the utmost importance. He made each of his members perform a small ritual involving their blood to swear an oath to secrecy. Darius looked at the younger kids in his school and instead of ignoring them like many of the other students did he saw a business opportunity. He got a couple of his men to investigate possible candidates for his purposes.
By the end of the school year Darius' profits were nearly doubled, he branched out in many illicit activities around the school and even out of school, and now there is even less evidence saying he's a part of the activity.
This goes on pretty well for an other year or two and when Darius graduated he started his own business which he used to launder money and as a fence. He had the typical issues of any illegal business; bribing officials, protecting your territory, ensuring members are safe and snitches are dealt with, the usual.
It wasn't until Darius was 22 that things went south. There was a vicious grab for power from a good friend of his, and his right hand man. In a single night three key members of Darius' gang were killed, and bribed officials were bribed by Darius to take him in and be key members of the trial to convict Darius.
Darius got out of most of the trouble and was sent to prison and fined a large amount of money for attempting to bribe officials, fencing illegal goods. Darius didn't mind prison though, he still had a couple of people on the out side willing to do a thing or two for him, so he was able to smuggle goods in and made a place for him self.
Eventually he got out, he was informed by his ex-right hand man that it was in his best interest to get out of town, so he decided to join his brother in adventuring and what not which is where his true story begins.

-Character Personality: After many years of being in charge and suddenly being betrayed Darius finds it difficult to trust people, except for his brother and sister as of right now. Darius is often quiet and calculating but will usually take high risk tasks with high reward over monotonous day to day tasks that are safe. It is said that Darius can be quite arrogant at times, but he doesn't believe this, he simply believes that stupid people are stupid and don't deserve the right to live, although he doesn't kill them.
